Flag Mug Rugs

Well, I should call this "Flag" singular, coz that's all I have so far.

Have you ever done something which you thought would be a real challenge - just coz you can? Well this was my "challenge". For ages I'd wanted to make a Union Jack and finally last year, I made one.
Maybe other flags might follow - or maybe life will get in the way and no more will appear on this page. The next one on my To-Do list of flags is the Scottish flag - the flag of my heritage!

And my second flag finished is the Devon flag for Norm, coz that's where he was born.

And hang in there as there are other Flag Mug Rugs on the way...

And 4 years on from my initial upload, I have a heap of them which I've forgotten to show off. So here goes with the rest of them:

This is the flag of County Durham in North-East England which is from where the mother of Alice Armstrong was born.

This is the flag of England - both of us have family history here.

This is the flag of France. Norm has traceable family history going back to the 1300s from France.

I might need to make another one for Ireland - as you can see it's been well used and stuff has been spilt on it over the years - sadly, I've tried washing it but some stains just don't budge! We both share Irish heritage.

This is the flag of Norway. According to my DNA, I have Norwegian heritage! Ah! Those Vikings!!!

This is the flag of Scotland - the country of my heartland. According to my DNA, I am 50% Scottish and proud of the fact. Other than Australia, this is the country I'd love to live in, even for a year!

This is the flag of Somerset, from whence my mother's family come.

This is the flag of Sweden - like Norway, my DNA lists this country as part of my heritage.

This is the flag of Wales - another of Norm's countries of heritage.

I had fun making each of these Mug Rugs. They measure 6" x 9" and I love using them, especially while we are camping.

And these are a couple of photos of the collective flag mug rugs.
